Abstract

A mode switching and electronic sign-in system for a mobile device and a method thereof are provided. A mobile device performs detection of a sign-in device by a wireless network, and when detecting the sign-in device, the mobile device provides an electronic sign-in message. After the electronic sign-in message passes verification, the electronic sign-in message is recorded in the sign-in device. Meanwhile, because a result of detecting the sign-in device changes, the mobile device actively switches a corresponding mode of the mobile device, so as to achieve the technical efficacy of electronic sign-in performed through the mobile device of a user and automatic switching of the corresponding mode of the mobile device.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A mode switching and electronic sign-in system for a mobile device, comprising:
 a sign-in device, further comprising:
 a sending module, for sending a sign-in match signal; 
 a receiving module, for receiving an electronic sign-in message; 
 a verifying module, for verifying the electronic sign-in message; and 
 a recording module, for recording the electronic sign-in message when the electronic sign-in message passes the verification of the verifying module; and 
 
 a mobile device, further comprising:
 a detecting module, for detecting the sign-in match signal by a wireless network; 
 a connecting module, for connecting to the sign-in device by a wireless network, and sending the electronic sign-in message to the receiving module when the sign-in match signal is detected by the detecting module; 
 a determining module, for determining a position of the mobile device according to the sign-in match signal when the mobile device detects the sign-in match signal; and 
 a mode switching module, for switching a corresponding mode to the position of the mobile device determined by the determining module. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The mode switching and electronic sign-in system for a mobile device according to  claim 1 , wherein the verifying module compares the electronic sign-in message with a standard message, and when the electronic sign-in message is consistent with the standard message, the electronic sign-in message passes the verification of the verifying module. 
     
     
       3. The mode switching and electronic sign-in system for a mobile device according to  claim 1 , the detecting module detects the sign-in match signal by a wireless network, wherein the wireless network is Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. 
     
     
       4. The mode switching and electronic sign-in system for a mobile device according to  claim 1 , wherein the connecting module establishes the connection to the sign-in device according to a wireless network detected by the detecting module. 
     
     
       5. The mode switching and electronic sign-in system for a mobile device according to  claim 1 , wherein the recording module stores and records the electronic sign-in message in a manner of a database or a text file. 
     
     
       6. A mode switching and electronic sign-in method for a mobile device, comprising the steps of:
 detecting a sign-in match signal by a wireless network, wherein the sign-in match signal is sent by a sign-in device; 
 determining a position of the mobile device according to the sign-in match signal when the mobile device detects the sign-in match signal; 
 switching a corresponding mode to the position of the mobile device; 
 connecting to the sign-in device by a wireless network and sending an electronic sign-in message to the sign-in device when the sign-in match signal is detected by the mobile device; and 
 verifying the electronic sign-in message by the sign-in device; and 
 recording the electronic sign-in message when the electronic sign-in message passes the verification of the sign-in device. 
 
     
     
       7. The mode switching and electronic sign-in method for a mobile device according to  claim 6 , wherein the step of verifying the electronic sign-in message by the sign-in device is: comparing the electronic sign-in message with a standard message, and when the electronic sign-in message is consistent with the standard message, the electronic sign-in message passes the verification of the sign-in device. 
     
     
       8. The mode switching and electronic sign-in method for a mobile device according to  claim 6 , wherein in the step of detecting a sign-in match signal by a wireless network, wherein the wireless network is Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. 
     
     
       9. The mode switching and electronic sign-in method for a mobile device according to  claim 6 , wherein when the electronic sign-in message passes the verification of the sign-in device, the step of recording the electronic sign-in message is: storing and recording the electronic sign-in message in a manner of a database or a text file.
